The kind of anger that brings about murder is all too common. The problem isn't weapons. The problem is we don't teach self control to kids anymore. It's OK for kids to have tantrums in public, and parents just stand there. My parents felt if I wasn't too good to embarrass them in public, they weren't too good to embarrass me. This young man will likely spend many many years doing hard time, or maybe face a lethal injection. So sad. Two lives ruined because no one taught this kid self control.
